Thai Tofu Cakes/Cutlets

I love to collect and browse through cookbooks but very seldom prepare any dish using them! Strange, right? Years and years ago when I stayed in a hostel, I used to jot down recipes that seemed interesting or clip recipes from magazines, when I did not even have a stove to cook nor had I cooked anytime at that point! But that collection of recipes did come in handy when I first ventured into cooking. So anyway, the reason I brought that up was because I finally made a dish using a recipe from a book called "The Essentials Collection - Thai" by Leslie Mackley. The recipe was for Thai Fish Cakes using cod but since I don't enjoy fish, I substituted it with tofu. Followed the rest of the recipe to the tee. The use of green beans in this intrigued me. It added a nice crunch, apart from boosting the nutritional element in the dish.

I love tofus, but i wonder where i can get them in US. i have never seen in any store. If u have any ideas let me know

The dish is so tempting that i should buy tofu and try it once.
